hey, i am buying new tires for my 99 si and was wondering what people here on HT have to say about tires, which ones they like and dislike. Thanks

 

As far as a combination between price, performance, and durability, I've found nothing I like better than the Yokohama AVS ES-100.

 

im rather fond of the kumho ecsta ASX or supra.

I really like those too, but I was told that they wear down too quickly. Is that true?

 

What do you want them for, what size do you need them in, etc, etc.? Nobody can even BEGIN to answer your question without you giving a general idea of what you need.

 

^ true

 

I have had Toyos and I personally didn't care for them at all. Now I get Nitto 450's from Discount tire for about $100 a piece plus free replacement. And I like my Falken's too.

 

Get some BFGoodrich g-Force T/A KD's...STICKY!

- price range
- whether or not wear mileage is important
- whether or not noise is important
- your region's climate (i.e. cold, hot, rainy, sunny, etc.)
- whether or not you have snow tires
- what you intend to do with the car (i.e. drag, daily driver, autocross, track)</TD></TR></TABLE>

 

- less then 400
- need to get a good amount of milage out of them
- trying to have no noise
- i live outside of phillly so in the winter it gets cold
- no i dont have snow tires but i dont think i will be driving the car in the winter(not sure yet on that)
- mostly daily driver and track, i really just need an all round good tire, not really good in one category or another, all round

- and i am looking for tires for my stock si rims....looking to get 195/55-15 size tires

 

Falken Ziex

i have ziex-512 205/50-15's on my ride. they're great ALL SEASON tires, the BEST bang for your buck. they're not ultra grippy tho. if you're willing to go with a summer tire, i'd try yoko ES100 or Kumho 712 (will last longer than the yoko, but less grippy)

 

I like the Kumho Ecsta MX. Great tires for the price.
